the crucial hat, 12/May/17

big wheels keep on turnin' as they will do today for today
is the day I set off southward bound for somewhere southward in the
south of here from here..... it seems I'm going away for a few days to
somewhere not too near nor not too far but perhaps just maybe, maybe,
maybe just right... and a few lefts and probably some more rights rollin', rollin', rollin'....
but be sure wherever I go I'll be sure to always take the weather even
though it's likely to always rain on me as it so often-times does one
lives in hope if it does it's not a hard rain that's a-gonna fall......
so what will this new albeit short adventure-to-be and should I merely
expect the unexpected......?.......

going away can always be so
fraught, what with putting the house to bed, what to take, what to
leave, have I switched everything off, emptied the bins, fed the cat...
wait, I don't have a cat..... ....... usually clothing gets sacrificed
during the packing for bits and bobs such as notepads and pens, books
and magazines, the quaintly-named 'toiletries'... and my usual electrical/ electronic jiggery-pokery: cameras, laptop, dictaphone, shaver (or I'll just hang it and grow a beard) and absolutely not forgetting the all-important journey-snacks...... can't go anywhere long-distance without a plethora of eatables for the trip.......... make note:
leave room for a pair of shoes and two changes of clothing, that'll do
surely... ok, two pairs of footwear maybe one of which I'll be wearing
undoubtedly..... and a hat, the crucial hat, being prone to the joys as
sunstroke 'tis an essential item for me baldy-head....... yes, of course
I'll pack a toothbrush, what do you take me for..... and a coat, I am a
northerner after all and never go anywhere without a coat just in
case, this is Wales after all, land of sheep and rain, so I should be
ok as long as it doesn't rain sheep.........

Read some of my poems at my other bloggerpage.......

the boring bit

Welcome to me, meonomous, and to my home here at “my life as a piece of string” and assorted other bits and bobs…….. here we go……..

I write a daily blog entitled “My life as a
piece of string”about whatever unedited stuff falls out of my head that
day available here, at Wordpress and Blogger.

I have occasional poems at another site entitled “Affirmations of another kind” found on Blogger and on Wordpress.

At the ku’lery forge I hammer out short verse
sometimes called haiku can be discovered at the “Notahaiku” pages , my
very own forge for hammering haiku into shape. This is found on
Wordpress.

Themed photographic collections are at “Through a lens darkly” also found lurking on Wordpress.

A plethora of sounds I’ve recorded can be heard at “Sifting Sounds” on Wordpress.

Finally being a gull enthusiast I have gull
photography at my “Gullery Gallery” alongside other assorted photo work
I do to be found on Flickr.

(Links to these pages are here in my profile……..)

Of unknown renown I’m a photographer, photojournalist, writer, blogger, poet (‘ish), graphic designer, otterologist, soundonomist, tea addict, coffee connoisseur (!),
experimental gentleman, cork-collector, anthropologist, birder,
naturalist, music addict, progger, dreamer of electric sheep……… often
found listening to the shipping forecast with a fresh pot of tea or
cafetiere of coffee, pen in hand, camera close by, an eye on the world
trying to keep up……. or not…..

My one-time delusions of being a rock star/ guitar impresario are now
filled with attempting to be a poet, photographer and wordsmith. I’ve
had long and probably wayward ‘career’ as an ecologist and
naturalist, gardener, environmentalist, anthropologist and a few other
unremarkable things, some of which I still practice and all of which
have lead me here to the here and now.
